Bardet-Biedl syndrome Pathogenic:3

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Dec 22, 2023	This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 4 of the BBS1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in BBS1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12118255, 21520335, 27032803). This variant is present in population databases (rs587777829, gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (PMID: 12118255; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12145). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Mar 04, 2022	Variant summary: BBS1 c.432+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes the canonical 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 247266 control chromosomes. c.432+1G>A has been reported in the literature as a compound heterozygous genotype in at-least one individual affected with Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (example, Mykytyn_2002, Zampaglione_2020, Guardiola_2021). Additionally we have observed this variant as a compound heterozygous genotype in an individual undergoing evaluation for Bardet-Biedl Syndrome at our laboratory. These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The BBS1 c.432+1G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the GT donor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state in patients with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (Mykytyn et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 12118255; Saeed et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32349990). This variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. Variants that disrupt consensus GT splice donor sites in BBS1 are expected to be pathogenic. In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
